My Time as a Graduate Student

It has been awhile

by Tina E on May 13, 2013

I know I haven’t posted in awhile. With traveling from Florida, family visiting, and wedding planning, I just haven’t had the time. Summer plans changed as well. I was planning to be home for the first half of the summer and return back to Florida for a class but, like most of the courses, one was cancelled. This leaves me with more time with family as well as more time for thesis work.

I have a directed study that I will be working on as well as my thesis work. I will be looking at Gender and Culture, a subject that I really haven’t studied before and should to be more well rounded as an anthropologist. The first two works that I will be reading are Women, Culture, and Society and Toward the Anthropology of Women. I haven’t begun reading these works yet, but my plan is to read Women, Culture, and Society this week and Toward the Anthropology of Women next week. I will also be reading Margaret Mead’s Sex and Temperament. I will be posting more often now that I have a schedule for these readings.
